ROMANCE OF SUEZ

Experience has proved th a t it is
the visionary who plans history and
the man of action who makes it.
Rarely are these two a ttrib u te s com
bined in one man. but when they
are-—you have someone to be reck
oned with in the m arch of civiliza
tion.
Such a man was Ferdinand de
Lesseps, th e heroic Frenchm an who
dreamed of jo in in g the M editerran
ean w ith th e Red Sea th a t ships
m ight sail the desert in a short
route to the East— th e selfsame
route sought by Columbus, Magel
lan. and heroes before them.
Driven by the love of two women,
de Lesseps fought te rrify in g odds to
te ar two continents asunder and
build the canal th a t has become the
ju g u lar vein of the world.
